Theory and Practice of Piano Performance, from S.157
60 practice pieces and more

For detailed theory and practice of piano playing,IMSLPYou can see the PDF scan data in the original language (German) because it is posted along with the scores of other songs from the site.

The instruction book contains many musical score examples, both those of his own and those of other composers. These 60 songs have been published in Japan as "60 Etudes".

With fingering and commentary by Kyoji Takemoto, who is also the chairman of the Japan JN Hummel Association, you can practice the course from beginner to intermediate and from intermediate to advanced in this one book.
Here, I will introduce all the songs, although they are embedded sound sources.
